解析：
【分析】
本题为用所给词的适当形式填空，解题思路如下：1. 先通读全文，根据时间标志“Long ago”确定故事时态为一般过去时；2. 结合每个空的上下文语境匹配对应单词，再依据一般过去时的规则对动词变形，助动词类需匹配时态和句式；3. 检查所选单词是否符合语境，且每词限用一次。
【解析】
1. 第一空：语境为国王想要找诚实的孩子当继承人，“想要”对应单词want，一般过去式为wanted，故填wanted。
2. 第二空：国王给种子后说的话，“说”对应单词say，一般过去式为said，故填said。
3. 第三空：Frank仔细种种子，“种”对应单词plant，一般过去式为planted，故填planted。
4. 第四空：Frank带着空花盆来，“来”对应单词come，一般过去式为came，故填came。
5. 第五空：根据后文回答“Yes, I did.”，可知此处是一般疑问句，助动词用Did，故填Did。
6. 第六空：种子没生长，一般过去时的否定形式用didn't，故填didn't。
【答案】
1. wanted 2. said 3. planted 4. came 5. Did 6. didn't
【知识点】
